Macaroni’s Resort is like no other on earth…

Imagine empty white sand beaches extending into clear warm water where perfect waves peel around the reef… it’s the kind of place dreams are made of!  Voted by the pros as the most fun wave to surf in the world, Macas is undoubtedly one of the world’s most consistent and rippable left-hand reef breaks.

Discovered in the 1980’s and kept secret for over a decade, Macaroni’s popularity skyrocketed when word got out. Introduction of tourism regulations now support a sustainable carrying capacity of 40 surfers visiting daily. What remains mostly unrealized is the quality of uncrowded surf during shoulder and summer months, when warmer weather keeps Southern hemisphere surfers closer to home.

REGION

Parked in the North Indian Ocean, long range ground swells travel miles and unload in a tropical paradise full of amazing people, waves for all levels, palms and coconuts aplenty. The Southern Hemisphere Winter has more frequent and larger waves. During Summer months the area remains similarly consistent but with less intense swells. If you are an absolute charger then large peak season swells and heaving 8-10 footers will be your dream, however if you love hanging with your mates, sinking a few beers, and scoring perfect mid-size points and reefs, then do not count out shoulder season or the summer period.

WAVES

Here’s a guide to the waves which you might get to surf during your trip. Our operators have years of experience and will do their best to ensure that you’re in the right place at the right time. If you’re lucky they might even let you in on some of their secret spots too!

GETTING THERE

Getting to the Mentawai Islands is somewhat involved for the traveller, however there is no doubt that this is part of the experience and what it takes to surf some of the best waves in the world.

Most hotels and charters can organise transport from Padang (North Sumatra) so you simply need to organise flights into Padang which usually transfer from either Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, Singapore or Bali.

GETTING FROM PADANG TO MACARONIS

You can make your own way to Macaronis Resort, or we can arrange a Fast-Ferry Transfer for $250 AUD per person each way. This package includes transfers from/to airport or hotel, fast-ferry tickets and luggage (surfboard luggage additional $50 each way). Note that you need to arrive in Padang the night before the day of the ferry departure and stay at Savali Hotel, ready to be picked up the following morning.

(Any trip specific details such as pick up times, hotel arrangements or additional requirements shall be emailed to you within 48 hours of your booking confirmation)
